Voters Choose Top Crime Cover

They call it Bloody Cover. And you get what it says on the tin - the best German crime fiction book cover of the year.

Punters could choose from a shortlist of twelve covers, voting online or at selected libraries around the country. The winner is Westend Blues, a regional detective story set in Frankfurt. The Germans do love their regional crime.
